Hannah wants to see if her new technique of ping-pong playing can increase one's ping-pong performance. She asks the U.S. Olympic ping-pong team to work with her. Half of the U.S Olympic team is randomly assigned to be taught by the new style, the experimental group, and the other randomly assigned half are not, the control group. Her technique does not significantly increase the performance of the experimental group compared to the control group, perhaps because they are already so good at the sport. This could be an example of

a. the need for matching groups.

b. a ceiling effect.

c. the need for determining initial comparability.

d. an internally invalid study.* .

Ceiling effect

In Hannah case the experimental group and the control group was pretty much not significantly different because both groups were already good at the sport. Her experiment couldnt function properly because there is no accuracy to the test since both groups perform well, this is known as a ceiling effect

The term ceiling effect is a measurement limitation that occurs when the highest possible score or close to the highest score on a test or measurement instrument is reached, thereby decreasing the likelihood that the testing instrument has accurately measured the intended group.

What is culture? why do cultures differ? what is the relationship between culture and biology?
larisa86 [58]
1. Culture refers to a set of beliefs, norms, values, behaviors and objects that members of a certain social group or society share, or have in common with each other. A type of culture for instance, can be western culture, which is typically characterized by individuality, modern and developed infrastructure, high literacy levels, etc. 

2. Cultures differ because people live in different geographical locations and are subject to different social roles, opportunities, education levels and day-to-day responsibilities. For instance a woman who lives on a remote farm belongs to a different culture compared to a woman who is a top executive at a multi-national company. Similarly, members of society who belong to the upper class belong to a different culture compared to members of society who live below the poverty line.

3. The relationship between culture and biology is characterized by certain features of culture that serve to propagate the human species and protect it from harm. Most if not all cultures promote sexual intercourse and reproduction to save the human species from extinction. Similarly, most cultures have laws to protect from crime in order to maintain safety and harmony in society.

For a population of organisms to undergo natural selection, there are at least 2 criteria that must be met. The population must
nignag [31]

Answer: A population to undergo natural selection must have a <u><em>transmittable gene pool</em></u><em> and </em><u><em>high fecundity</em></u>

Explanation:

Natural selection is a process by which species develop traits that make them adaptable to a certain environment and increase in reproduction rates.

There are various genes in our bodies. Some of these <em>genes</em> are located in our <em>body cells</em> and others, in our<em> reproductive cells</em> (present in eggs and sperm). The genes transmitted to offspring are present in reproductive cells therefore, for natural selection to occur, the genes which enable adaptability must be present in reproductive cells and passed down to offspring from generation to generation.

High fecundity or reproduction is important in natural selection as it increases the sustainability rate of the newly evolved genes enabling adaptation of the species to the environment.

Overmier and Seligman have described the phenomenon of learned _________ as the tendency to feel powerless in the face of events
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Overmier and Seligman have described the phenomenon of learned <u>helplessness</u> as the tendency to feel powerless in the face of events that we can't control.

In 1967, Overmier and Seligman conducted a research, which showed that dogs, once found in an uncontrollable situation such as unavoidable electric shocks, were incapable of escaping a different situation, although there was a possible escape in that situation. The phenomenon of learned helplessness is also commonly experienced by humans who, after repeatedly going through a stressful situation, believe they do not have control over the events. They fail to take any action, even if there is a possible solution.

maria [59]
The correct answer is the Sixth amendment.

The Sixth amendment of the Bill of Rights outlines that citizens have the right to an attorney if one cannot be afforded. Along with this, the sixth amendment also allows for the right to a fair and speedy trial and the right to a jury. All of these aspects make up an important part of our justice system.

In this excerpt, this Supreme Court justice is further solidifying this fact, as judge discusses how the court system puts "<span>great emphasis on procedural and substantive safeguards designed to assure fair trials before impartial tribunals."</span>
